Comment on Team from ETH Zurich make high quality quantum swap gate using a geometric phase

Comments

Every single discussion thread about any announcement in quantum feels exactly the same:

1. this is not what you think it is, there are caveats and the title is misleading.

2. I feel there is so much hype around quantum computing.

3. It's like nuclear fusion, always 10 years away.

4. Nuclear fusion is at least practical. QC is not.

5. Did they manage to find prime factorization of 17 already? LOL

6. Cryptography will be dead, RIP bitcoin and https.

7. No, actually quantum computers are useless.

It's tiring.
